For clarification, this is not taking into account any change to ANH or ESB in regards to the revelation of Luke's parantage, and is going off of the original, official events of Episodes IV and V.
Now, THAT'S what I'm talking about! Phenomenal post, CC! That structure is a definite for ROTJ. This is what I mean by taking what we have available to us and re-inventing it. I love the idea of starting out on Dagobah. It makes much more sense. Wipe to the Emperor. Excellent! Tatooine, Luke's late arrival makes sense now. And if we can squeeze anything out of the radio dramas we should. As long as the ghost of Obi-Wan doesn't sit on a log, I'm happy.
The Owen stuff is still a little iffy for me... But...
One last thing, it was suggested THIS thread become the ""Bible Thread." Based on how the discussion is turning, I would agree.

Done.
Oh, and I'm still uploading the Duel clip. It's 111mb. I'll post the link as soon as it's available.
